I am absolutely loving OpenCL. I rewrote a fairly simple single threaded function that I thought didn't have enough raw compute to justify porting to a kernel: CPU (single threaded): 217ms GPU (plus all CPU overhead): 20ms (10ms kernel+10ms CPU overhead)

Apple abandoning/deprecating OpenCL is a boneheaded move. We're not going to spend a bunch of time porting to Metal for ~7% PC market share. On OSX we'll only support our CPU fallback code paths, and that's that.

OpenCL is announcing new extensions for two key uses cases: boosting neural network inferencing performance and providing flexible and powerful interoperability with new generation graphics APIs, including Vulkan. khronos.org/blog/khronos-r…

This is a nice writeup that describes the new OpenCL extensions and the use-cases they are targeting. I'm excited to see what developers can do with this functionality!

New OpenCL extensions provide additional interoperability, supporting an industry trend to provide open, multivendor, and multiarchitecture solutions. We are big fans. #OpenCL #IamIntel Intel Software

The next major release of the Basis Universal GPU texture interchange lib (v1.16) is coming along. I like to keep lots of backups. ETC1S encoding is now 1.4x faster single threaded, 2.2x faster multithreaded, and >4x faster using OpenCL single threaded.

We've added a range of events to next week's P'Con (#PaCER conference). Check them out in this thread 👇🏾
